[Opinions] Twin girls with names beginning with "A" and "T" update
I follow YouTubers Jessica and Claudia Kellgren-Fozard. They shared a video announcing the birth of their twin girls. The video didn't give their names, but I noticed they had initials on their blankets - "A" and "T". I wanted to see what wonderful combinations our Behind the Name community would come up with, and I wasn't disappointed!
Today, they revealed the twins' names. Did anyone happen to choose either of the names Jessica and Claudia chose?
Yes!- mirfak, caledonia64 and Honeyberry 04 were in sync with Jessica and Claudia!Augusta and Theodora! They join brother Rupert Henrik Kan

No idea who these people are but I actually like this twin set and I don't hate Rupert with it even if I don't care for that particular name.
I'm with Dianatiger about Augusta. I think it's ugly. The sounds are unpleasant - augh, guh, gust, stuh, tuh.
However it is a decent name, and I think it has some of the same issues that people think Claudia has (clod, clawed, odge, cloud). So there's some resonance there somehow.
I like the name Claudia, though.
Ohh we posted the same thing at almost the same time! LOL, I must have missed your earlier post about the A and T thing... I missed Jessica's hint about it too!
I must have been scanning my earlier post to see who suggested the names that Jessica and Claudia chose when you posted. We name nerds can't help but jump on the latest news! I caught sight of the "A" blanket and then had to rewind the video to catch the "T" blanket.
Oh yes I follow them as well. I was quite pleased when they picked Rupert, it's such a handsome name. Theodora is quite cute and vintage though I do prefer Theodosia. I'm not a fan of Augusta, bleh ... It makes me think of puke. I think they are prettier names they could have picked that would have been complimentary to Theodora, but it's not the worst, no. The nickname though? Auggie?? Gussy?? Bleh. Rue is so cute a nickname. Thea, Teddy or Dora are all nice options. But I just.... really dislike Augusta. I would have been slightly more lenient if it had been Augustine.
